USB?

 

[Bodge!]

The file you can password, but im not sure about the cd itself

 

[Wilkeh]

There's a few people asking the same question on google. None of them seam straight forward though.

 

[Gally]

The file inside the CD should be protected yes?

 

[Ali]

USB? How would that differ from CD?

Oh really? Nuts, there will be ALOT of files tho! Word, excel, PDF etc?! :S

Put all the files into a ZIP file and password protect just the one ZIP file?

A lot of it will depend on just how secure you need it to be though!

 

[Ali]

Submission required a Priced Electronic copy with Read/write access, that must be password protected...Other is Hard copies so not an issue.

Thanks G, will look into Zip...use it all the time, wasn't aware you could password protect.

Once .rar's/zip's are passworded they are pretty epic and impossible to unlock.

I'm talking ZIP here, I've no real experience of hacking .rar. ZIP is weak but well know and used a great deal more than .rar.

Encrypt the files.......

Use a RAR file ?

Depends how you use it, 256 bit AES encryption with a 'complex' passphrase zip files aren't what I'd call weak

At the end of the day most of the crackers for these work by trying to brute force the file.

Also if you aren't wanting people to even be able to see the filenames then double zip it
